The acting part is easy; it's the preparing - lifting weights and getting your body in tip-top shape - that's the hard part.

Some actors are supposed to be very difficult, but I've not found that to be the situation.

You have to have wonderful actors for material, particularly difficult material that requires complicated performances.

It's rare that I come across actors who are willing to work as hard on the material as I am.

I get really excited every time there's a female character who is really strong because a lot of females in film are really soft.

If you're a sexy actress, it's hard to get serious roles. You get offered the same thing they've seen you in. People are like sheep, and they're like, 'Oh, that's what she does well.'

There are wonderfully talented actresses. It's a really rich field. There isn't as rich a field of material.

There are lots of moments that are great for an actress.

Actors, lots of times, are great when they have great parts. For me, a lot of times, it's been the part.

I have never really believed that acting is very difficult. I think some people have a skill and are able to act, and if you have that natural gift, it's not difficult.
